Starting Allen W. Trelease’s “White Terror: The Ku Klux Klan Conspiracy and Southern Reconstruction.” Drawing from “Report of the Joint Select Committee to Inquire into the Condition of Affairs in the Late Insurrectionary States,” Trelease’s volume ends up being one of the most, if not the most, comprehensive treatment of reactionary violence during Reconstruction. We also need to find the 13 volumes (!!!) of the report to the joint select committee.
